Crypto Journey Part 8 🧠 | Strategy, Mistakes & How to Perform Better
This post wraps up everything I’ve learned during 3+ years in crypto — from FOMO mistakes to smarter moves like farming #AlphaPoints.
⸻
🔄 What I Do Now
• Farming ~16 Alpha Points/day (142+ total)
• Focusing on high-potential projects like #Monad, #StargateBridge (for $ZRO), #SuperStacks (Optimism)
• Actively tracking drops from Eclipse, Solana L2s, etc.
💡 Main Rule:
Less random testnets, more reward-focused strategies that work.
⸻
📘 My Alpha Points Guide
1. Pick active campaigns in Binance Alpha Center
2. Trade eligible tokens (Spot or Futures) with low fees
3. Redeem airdrops when windows open — don’t miss them
4. Track weekly: 3–5 tokens per week is optimal
⚠️ Focus on campaigns that actually reward, not just hype.
⸻
❌ My Mistakes (So You Avoid Them)
• Lost Ledger + seed phrases = major funds locked
• Early Futures trading = liquidations from bad signals
• Months wasted on low-value testnets (some paid $1–2)
⸻
✅ What I’d Do Differently
• Start with Spot, not Futures
• Backup wallets properly
• Stick to high-quality airdrops (Alpha Points > hype testnets)
• Track all activities (wallets, rewards, costs)
• Avoid FOMO — aim for long-term gains
⸻
🧠 Final Tips
🔹 Don’t overfarm — focus where effort = results
🔹 Use Alpha Points weekly — some drops paid $100–700
🔹 Learn from mistakes — it’s the only way to grow
🔹 Stay consistent — your future self will thank you

That’s it for Part 8 — my journey isn’t over, but I hope this helps others perform smarter.
